When Billy woke again there was silence. 

The surroundings had changed. 

He found himself laying on a small white bed in the corner of a while tiled room. 

Pulling himself up from the mattress, he tumbled to the floor. 

Groaning in pain, he stumbled to his feet and made his way to the only door he could see. 

Peering out of the thick pane of glass he saw a dark hallway with a flickering light. 

Slapping the glass with his hand he gathered remaining strength to bang it harder and harder. 

"HEY! .... let me out! ..hey! .... Max was this you!?... you and your freaks! ..when i get out of her-"

Looking down he saw his chest covered in bandages. 

Something didn't feel right. 

He was accusing Max but then the last thing he remembered was saying "sorry" to her. 

Grabbing one of the bandages edges he began to peel it back. 

"i wouldn't do that if i was you" 

Looking up he searched for where the voice was coming from and noticed the far back wall was made entirely of clear thick glass with another room on the other side. 

Sitting close to the glass watching him was a young woman with shoulder length black hair, brown eyes with flecks of green, full wide lips. Her skin was pale white, covered in scratches. And she was wearing a hospital gown, but her feet were bare. 

"who are you?" he asked his tone confused and hostile.

"I'm Vine" 

"fine? no i didn't ask how you were i -"

" you asked my name and I told you my name is Vine - V.i.N.E"

Not liking to be corrected Billy licks his top lip in annoyance. 

"and where are we Vine?" he raises both his arms gesturing to his surroundings. 

"In a underground lab"

Chuckling, Billy walks over to where she's sat. 

Crouching down in front of the glass between them he eyes her up and down, suspiciously. 

"did you put me here Vine?"

"no" 

"did you have anything to do with this?"

"I brought you back to life if that's what you mean"

"y-you br-r-rought me back to life" he repeats slowly, not believing her. 

Kneeling close to the glass he glares at her hatefully "I know what this is.... you won't get me again nice try, now I'm going to ask you nicely let me out I won't be your bitch again"

Her face deadpans. She makes no response. 

"let me out" he demands. 

Not responding to his request. 

Billy gets angrier trying to hide how scared he really is. 

"let me out" he demands, his tone gruff. 

No response again. 

 Billy loses it "Let me out .. let me out ... let me out .. I didn't mean to okay .. El she spoke of my mom and i -i just didn't want to hurt no more.. i didn't want to hurt no more people .. please i ..."
